Error in the solar imaging procedure (SRT map)

[mmarongiu]

Could you fix this error in the solar imaging for SRT, please? Moreover, I would point out that the imaging procedure for only 1 feed takes approximately 15 minutes.

Thank you, Marco

Hi @mmarongiu , can you try the following? SDTimage -c KKG_SARDARA_SUN.ini --frame sun

Note the addition of -c before the ini file

[mmarongiu]

Hi @matteobachetti, I tried to add -c after SDTimage and now SDT works correctly (both SRT and Medicina solar maps). I'm sorry for my typo in the SDTimage command.

[matteobachetti]

No worries! Thanks for the followup. I'll close this and open another Issue to verify if the documentation is always clear about this
